cna reciprocity question

Hello!! I have a question about reciprocity with your CNA. I live in Pennsylvania, and have lived here my entire life. I live near the border of New York. I am interested in starting a CNA class that is held in New York and they would offer me a full time job at their facility, which is incredible. My question is... since then I would have my New York CNA and not my Pennsylvania... if something would ever happen that I would want to work in Pennsylvania as a certified nurses aide, what would I have to do to get my Pennsylvania CNA, would I have to retake tests or classes or anything!? Hope to hear back soon, thanks so much!!!
According to the DoH website, you would have to re-test:Eligibility by Examination You are eligible for testing if you have completed a nurse aide training program approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Education within the last 24 months. OrYou are a student nurse with an approved application of eligibility from the Pennsylvania Department of Education. OrYou were trained out of state and have received approval to test from the Pennsylvania Department of Education. OrYour Pennsylvania nurse aide registry has lapsed because you have not worked one documented day providing nursing related services for 24 months or more.http://www.portal.state.pa.us/portal...registry/14154
